How an armadillo 'works'

Every August 13th is International Armadillo Day! About 20 varieties of this omnivore mammal exist, and all except one live in Latin America. Its name means “little armored one” in Spanish and refers to the bony plates covering most of these odd-looking animals’ backs, heads, legs, and tails. Featured in this reel is the Brazilian Three Banded Armadillo including Peaches, Peter, and Puffles! #armadillo | Barn Hill Preserve
